It could be a bigger threat worldwide once US troops are withdrawn. It never was a heaven for terrorists before, but easily could be now that Saddam is out of power.

In a way i think it may have been good that Saddam was taken out of power, simply because I would never want to see his sons in control of anything; let alone an entire country.

But now they will probably just end up having to instate another dictator sooner or later, probably one of the clerics that they've been waging war against, because they're the only ones most of the Iraqi people will listen to.
